Notice on the Difference between Consolidated Results for the Second Quarter of the Fiscal Year Ending December 2026 and the Actual Results

Section Heading

This report discloses the differences between the consolidated earnings forecast and actual results for the second quarter of the fiscal year ending December 2026 (January 1 to June 30, 2026). All items—revenue, operating income, ordinary income, net income attributable to owners of parent, and earnings per share interim—surpassed the previous forecast, indicating a stronger-than-expected performance. While the difference is partly due to postponed completion of some projects leading to special losses in the second half potentially affecting full-year projections, the full-year forecast itself has not been changed from the prior release.

Section 2

Reasons for the difference include the increase in net income attributable to owners of parent, with expectations for recognizing special losses in the second half influencing results. While currency information is provided, the company will promptly disclose any necessary adjustments to the full-year forecast in light of future earnings trends. Investors should note that, at present, there is no change to the full-year forecast, but factors such as project delays and the occurrence of special losses could impact future figures.
